At HC6, the study of the English Language will be delivered by subject specialists who are experienced, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. They will bring the subject to life and ensure you see the study of linguistics as more than words on the page. English Language is the study of how writers craft texts to convey meanings. You will explore a range of texts from all modes, genres and periods. You will also study the theoretical study of the English language. This will enable you to explore gender, power, class, age, ethnicity and its influence on how we use the English language and communicate with each other in all facets of our lives. Studying English Language will develop your ability to assess texts analytically, establish patterns and consider critically how the contexts of writers and receivers affect the meanings conveyed. We pride ourselves in ensuring all students, whatever their future aspirations, gain from their study of the English Language.
